Despite being the ultimate classic, I'd never read Le Petit Prince in full. I read the beginning when I was very young, but I didn't get it and never finished it. When I read La nuit du Faune recently, I don't really know why but I kept thinking about this French tale. Something about philosophy and the idea of traveling from one portrait to another. I was also craving something simple and straight-forward after Romain Lucazeau's mind-boggling book. So I finally read Le Petit Prince, and I did enjoy it immensely. It's really sweet, light and deep at the same time, and it celebrates a child's look on life.
